Those who enjoy the great view of the Rhine and the Siebengebirge can truly sniff historical air. History was made here for over 100 years. The 4711 perfume manufacturer Ferdinand Mülhens had this magnificent building built at the end of the 19th century. The house achieved its historic significance in the autumn of 1949 when Chancellor Konrad Adenauer negotiated the Petersberg Agreement with the Allied High Commission. In April 1954 the hotel reopened its doors. The federal government rented it during state visits (until 1973); the first official guest was Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia in November 1954. After Leonid Brezhnev's visit, the hotel closed for a long time in 1973. In 1985 it was extensively modernized for around 70 million euros and reopened in 1990 by the Steigenberger hotel chain. Since then, US President Bill Clinton has been a guest, Michael Schumacher married his Corinna there.

A beer garden with a great flair and a great view! The plane trees offer a beautiful green canopy.

View from Petersberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Petersberg, which rises steeply directly from the Rhine, is a historical place with a very special significance. After the Second World War, the highest representatives of the victorious powers met here for several years to discuss world politics. Even today, the luxury hotel is regularly used by the federal government for national and international conferences. The view over the Rhine towards Bonn is magnificent!

Great view in all directions from the highest mountain in the Siebengebirge. Approach from Königswinter via Margarethenhöhe, from there gravel path, sometimes borderline for gravel bikes. Nice restaurant with a terrace, but very crowded on weekends.

The Little Milk House

Highlight • Cafe

A nice place to rest in the middle of the forest. Cozy, but not cheap. It's still worth a break and the coffee was delicious.

Drachenburg Castle in the distance

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the vantage point at the Heinrich von Dechen monument you have a beautiful view of the Drachenburg and the Drachenfelsbahn. The benches invite you to take a break here.
